They are there right now, waiting. SP has taken some pics. The guy is there with his wife. They are probably pretty pissed right now.

Any idea what the total mileage on your safaris is, Jojo?

^^^^^

I'll try to add some mileage up and get a rough estimate.

I just sent this to the lad in Nigeria, who has now thrice been screwed.

I just met with Alfred and his wife. I see that she is expecting. After a small communication error, everything was able to take place as scheduled.

I was sure this time, to take a good look at them and get a good description of the gentleman. I even snagged a couple of shots with my cell phone, in case this guy turns out to be like Mr Neill. I was much more careful this time.

I kept my mouth shut through the Chad bait, but I really think you're going too far with this one. How could you send a lad to that hell-hole! Would you really be able to live with yourself if he gets a sunburn, or has lunch in an overpriced cafe?

He was unable to get a clear shot of who the guy was, but that's no problem. I am sure I can give a description if need be.

The lad called again at 9:03pm, my phone was unplugged, he didn't leave a message on BT answerphone, if he calls again tomorrow, I will tell him you have now booked out Very Happy

Jayhawk, I thank you. It's nice to know that someone recognises the power behind Jojo. True, he was a bit of a failure when I first picked him up, but he's coming along fine now. OK, he'll never be as good a baiter as say you or me, but he's trying hard and that's what matters. In fact I can remember when I first offered to mentor him, he PMed me and said "Slightly, please make me as great as you". I explained to him that this would be impossible but that if he did put all his effort in he could probably rank somewhere as an almost above average baiter.

To tell you the truth, I'm proud of what Jojo has achieved here today. It's been like watching an ugly duckling turn into a little less of an ugly duckling. Like a caterpillar turning into a moth. The boy has grown up and reached puberty - metaphorically, he's still got pimples and no chance of getting a girlfriend but he's on the road to becoming a man.

Maybe, one day, Jojo will actually achieve the rank of "decent at baiting". Yeah, it's a long shot, but I do believe miracles can happen and who knows? It just might actually happen.
One day.

WOW! Well done mate! 50 glorious adventures. You should open your own travel agency - 'Jojo's Lad Travel Adventures'

I just got my 3rd safari axed by Simba. It was Accra - Kumasi - Accra. Same country safaris are hard to get verified... bloody Simba. Wink

And to think not more than twelve hours ago I was chuffed at getting my first Closed lad accounts

!!!!

Nicely done Jojo, and surely a target for the rest of us to aspire too...!

Posted: Tue Sep 23, 2008 9:23 am

^^^ And you should be chuffed.
Closing bank accounts hurts the lads big time. It's no less deserving of applause than the biggest safari.

Posted: Tue Sep 23, 2008 9:25 am

Well done mate, an inspiration to us all.

I'd love to know the Lad Kilometres covered...

Now, now NN, hijacking of threads seeking sympathy votes is not allowed... Laughing

You are making me feel bad, so I'll offer you 100% discount for any of your lads dispatched to an SSC location.... Wink

Back on subject, when you consider Jojo's 50 safaris, that really is a staggering feat.... bow_down

Well done, fatso. Smile
